Abstract
Shannon showed that the capacity of a discrete memoryless channel can not be increased by noiseless feedback. It has been conjectured that this should be true for a continuous memoryless channel, provided such a channel is appropriately defined. We precisely define such a channel from two mathematically different points of view and rigorously prove that its capacity can not be increased by feedback.
